What was the most popular color, "champagne" or white Of course I'm kidding, buying a Camry is no more/less boring than some bulbous CUV white appliance good thing.

I bet the US still have healthy demand for V6 Camrys, maybe around 20%?

In the past few years I test drove a couple of used ES with a V6 (port injected) and what a marvelous engine that is. Silky smooth, quiet with a lot of pull on demand and linear acceleration. What is your take on the modern D4-S V6 version?

What is your take on the modern D4-S V6 version?Honestly, I've only had Toyota sixes in Siennas 5+ years ago and recently in the 4Runner and Tacoma. Last Sienna I drove in a comparo (2015?) had the latest-gen V6, felt stronger than my Odyssey's mill, that's the extent of what I remember. I need to drive an ES.
